: : 	Which is better Linux or *BSD?

: You'd be better off with the question:

:   "What are the similarities/differences between Linux and *BSD?"
:
	OK. The structure and style of the FAQ should not 
	be up to me.   I would instead prefer that others
	work on this.

: : 	Do I get a Yeah on this?

: I won't say Nay, but I suspect that it would be impossible to keep it
: current enough to be useful.
:
	I would say not, because the current "my XYZ version is
	better than you ZYX version.... cause nananana".

	This type of insistent badgering would, I beleive,
	keep the FAQ very current.
